The Weeknd – The Nutty Professor
The Weeknd brought a blast from the past with his spot-on “Nutty Professor” costume for Halloween 2020. Decked out with a plump belly, prosthetic makeup, and that cheerful, clumsy vibe, he nailed the look of Eddie Murphy’s iconic character.
Known for his dark, moody music and hits like “Blinding Lights” and “Can’t Feel My Face,” The Weeknd, born Abel Tesfaye, took a hilarious detour with this playful costume. In 2021, he dominated the Super Bowl halftime show, and, by 2023, his acting debut in “The Idol” gained buzz. His “Nutty Professor” transformation was impressive and showed his fun side behind the often-serious persona.
